Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah head into Wednesday's Champions League semi-final second leg at Stadio Olimpico within touching distance of a new club record.

The Liverpool forwards scored twice each as AS Roma were defeated 5-2 in last Tuesday's first leg at Anfield - and no player has ever netted three times for the Reds in a European last-four tie.

The game pits a Roma team who have not conceded a home goal in the Champions League this season against a Liverpool side who have netted in every single European away fixture of the campaign.

The Reds have lost just one of their last seven visits to Italy, conceding only twice while keeping six clean sheets in those games.

Their biggest away win on Italian soil came at the Olimpico in 2001, when two Michael Owen goals beat Roma 2-0.

Liverpool have never been eliminated from Europe when holding a first-leg advantage of at least three goals (21 previous occasions).

Jürgen Klopp’s side have found the net 44 times in Europe so far this season - a club record - with Firmino and Salah netting 11 apiece to break the previous individual record of nine set by Dean Saunders in the 1991-92 UEFA Cup.

Firmino, Salah and Sadio Mane have scored 30 goals between them in Europe this term. Only once before in their illustrious history have the Reds reached that total as a team - when they netted 34 in the 2007-08 Champions League.

If Salah scores in Rome he will become the first Liverpool player since Steven Gerrard in 2007-08 to register in at least four European games in a row (Gerrard did it in five).

Klopp has suffered defeat in only two of his 26 European games while in charge at Anfield (the best record of any Liverpool manager in Europe over the same number of games from the beginning of their tenure), with the Reds scoring 61 goals in that time.
